ALL THINGS TRANSFORMERS!!!!

[karamazov80]

This guy just arrived today. It's a ko of Backfiery and I must say.. Having never held the original I really don't see anything that screams KNOCK OFF! I think its great. With nothing to compare it against.. Ignorance is bliss lol

Looks great for a Classics-type Insecticon.

I think the size comparison looks pretty good. I just hope it means BB will be a lot cheaper.

Well the pre-orders have gone up everywhere already. Price is roughly comparable, sometimes a little cheaper than previous figures, but as Corsair says, the Daniel figure was apparently added to keep costs from going too low.

Size looks pretty much perfect to me.

Looks like I will be going back to grab the other two and some stickers.

Anticipation builds with every new glimpse of Mr. Bee. Looking pretty much perfect in my eyes thus far.

Yeah, I'm not the hugest fan of BB and only have decepticons in my collection but I'm tempted with this. Would sell on the exosuit though.

New BB size comparison shot.

Well that looks pretty much spot on to me.

Bravo Taktom!!!!!!

Bumblebee looks to be a bit smaller than Cubex Huffer in robot mode....which works very well.

Once I've paid for a few other things I may end up ordering one.

Only [insert name of soccer team you don't support here] fans wouldn't buy Bumblebee. Just saying.

You may be onto something,

Liverpool fans wouldn't actually buy Bumblebee, they'd mug the postie and get it that way.

Arsenal fans would overspend on a frog eyed variant of the character that breaks halfway through the season.

( If anyone who posts here supports either team....I'm only kidding )

At that size bumblebee should really be $50 stateside, $60 tops and $35 straight from Japan.

No matter to me though. Cancelled my preorders for him and wheeljack. Now that Fewture is making that Ultimetal Megatron, I'm just going to get that and the Optimus and leave it at that except for my MP-08 and Maketoys Giant.

Is there a decent deal online for that Ultimetal Prime anywhere? Or even a Flex Type thing somewhere?

I know I'm late to the party, but I just got charged for the Masterpiece Sideswipe reissue. It's been a long wait, but I'm looking forward to finally getting one.

Where did you order from, Ben? I need to secure one. Now that VW is on board, so am I.

I got him from BigBadToyStore. Looks like he's in stock for shipment right now.

Sort of. I am buying it through goodshipped (ebay seller) but not on ebay. On ebay he is doing it for $850. Straight through paypal is selling it to me for $835 shipped and requires a 30% deposit. So I paid him $250 now and will pay him the remaining $585 when it arrives in stock. I imagine I could send him payments too if I wanted. This is what I did for my Fewture EX Gokin Getter G team that I got through him. Worked out great. Paid him a deposit, then paid him in two more chunks for the rest of those expensive bastards.

You Recommend him then?

I'll look him up. Thx.

Definitely. He has responded to every email of mine within 48 hours, usually within 24 (and I have sent him a lot of emails). His shipping is funny, he surrounds the box with 6 thick pieces of styro, tapes them together and wraps it in brown paper, but since these things all come with their own shipping boxes like hot toys, all 3 figures I got from him showed up fine. He ships quickly after you pay when something is in stock.

I also asked him to QC check my figures, since there can be some paint flaws on these fewture figures now and again, and he opened them carefully like a collector would expect, handled them very carefully and only missed one tiny little paint flaw on one of the figures. He's very fair and pleasant to deal with. His prices are good for lots of stuff, not so much for other stuff. He carries hot toys too.

If you check him out on ebay, he has an insane amount of feedback.

Yeah, he has an intense amount of great feedback, just like timcent. I don't want to risk it with this one, almost a grand on a Prime is just enough to freak over little stuff. Good to know he checks for QC issues too.

Man, this thing is going to look fantastic.

Goodshipped is awesome. I've had all my HotToys from him inc the ED209 that's coming. Even had replacements from him. Great communication too.

Who is timcent?

BTW he only checks for QC if you ask him to specifically. I feel safe buying through him on paypal even though the paypal dispute period will likely be up by the time this comes out because I don't have to pay in full like I would on ebay, plus I use an American Express when buying through him, so they will cover me if I don't receive my goods. He sends detailed emails and when sending paypal invoices, actually outlines what you are buying and how you are doing it with the deposit amount and amount owed, unlike lots of people who just send an invoice that says "goods".

He did ask me once to pay him a remaining balance through gift payment, but I told him I wasn't comfortable with that and he didn't make a fuss.

I am so excited for the Ultimetal Prime and Megatron. Fewture's quality and paint jobs are so phenomenal. And you know it's going to be totally loaded with diecast.

Dude, that megatron looks the business.

Afraid I might have to sell off my mp collection to get them.

Might just do it.
